― Ernest Hemingway"
Finally, my Basketball "career" has come to an end. Well, truth be told, there is a mixed feeling now that CCA is out of the equation towards my main goal, A' levels. What we set out to achieve initally, as a team of 12 players, 2nd round in the A'Division. For 4 consecutive games, we were defeated... but we still have one final game, which may also be my final game, against TPJC. We knew it was our only chance to redeem ourselves.
"WE HAVE NOTHING TO LOSE, BUT EVERYTHING TO PROVE"
These were the words I told the team before going into the game. Determination to achieve our goal, coupled with our teamwork, helped us grind out a victory, winning 34-31! The feeling of winning was, GOOOOOOOD!!! 超爽！！！ The last time I won in a SR jersey was the first game I've ever played in A'Div, how coincidental to win in my last game. What happened in between? Well, credits to Miss R:)
All in all, though we did not achieve what we wanted, the smile, joy and laughter on and off court made this journey memorable. Thank you guys!

Back to my topic, my perception of goals~
Whenever I set to achieve something, I would work towards it. Recently, I managed to break my own personal best again, 2.4km---8mins 28secs. This has been one on my list of things to accomplish, to beat my own timing! In my point of view, everyone has a reason as to why they would want to achieve their goals. As for me, it's simple, it is for the person who has inspired me! However, achieving this goal of mine has not brought me much happiness, oddly.. Comparisons are always made, and there will be people out there commenting. I believe in actions, not words
On a side note, I believe in KARMA! Day after A'Div and NAPFA test, I sprained my ankle-.- First time I've ever sprained it. Guess it's a sign to go study!

Lastly, working towards MYES! Though I've no goals yet... which is bad, I want to do well! These few days, many things have been running through my mind. How I wish I could go back in time, to last year. I'd always enjoy the accompaniment of Jason, Vivian and Zhan Chun, sitting together on the same bench, studying together~ If only I had not been an SP... If only I had graduated last year. I would have enlisted by now, I wouldn't have to go through this year... I miss last year.
Perseverance is what I stand for
